This lake is so peaceful and relaxing. Great Bass fishing, averages about 3 -4 lbs that we caught during our stay. Kitchen is fully equipped that no matter what you cook or bake, they got it covered with pots/pans/utensils. Great view of the lake from the loft, livingroom and downstair bedroom. Lake is super clean but you may want to wear watershoes for comfort. Ralph was a super great host. Answered all questions within a timely fashion. Thank you Ralph and Kim for a great place to stay at.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week at Ralphs place. We swam and used the kayaks. Great floats available for our use. The kids loved fishing from the dock. Kitchen had anything that you could imagine you might need. We used the grill everyday and enjoyed the campfire. Peaceful area on quiet pond

This property was absolutely wonderful. It was so very clean and well stocked with everything you can think of that you would need or want! The location was great, so very peaceful and quiet. It was back a dirt road about 2.2 miles but that is one of the things my husband and I loved about it!!!! Fishing was awesome for us, we caught over 80 bass, most were from 3 1/2 pound to 5 pound#!!! The resident eagles LOVED to follow us around the pond as we fished! We traveled to Bangor, Greenville, Dexter, and Dover-Foxcroft for short little day trips, but we really hated to leave the "camp". Ralph was great to deal with! We stayed at the VRBO rental for 2 weeks and absolutely loved everything about it! We would LOVE to return in the future! We were sad to leave!

A beautiful cabin, fully stocked! The communication with the owners was excellent. A perfect get-a-way for some R&R. Definitely recommend staying here! So peaceful with the pond, the loons, fishing, kayaking, etc. Perfection!

Quiet, clean and relaxing setting. Great place to swim, kayak, play games or just sit and read while you listen to the loons.

Ralph and Kim are exceptional hosts! Great communication throughout the booking and check-in processes, including a detailed guide to the home and area and very helpful directions to the camp (with photos!). The house was very well stocked with everything we needed for our stay and more. We took advantage of the 2 included kayaks and enjoyed paddling around the peaceful pond. We also enjoyed the use of the hammock, fire pit, and ample waterfront seating. The beds were extremely comfortable, which was a nice treat after days of hiking nearby. We ventured to Peaks-Kenney State Park, Dover-Foxcroft, Bangor, and did a day trip to Acadia. You must try Butterfields Ice Cream, The Cluckin Moo, and Stutzmans for delicious options. We also took advantage of the day passes offered by Friends of Community Fitness for those missing their full workouts while we were vacationing, the facilities were great and the staff was friendly. The nearby Shaws supermarket in D-F had everything we needed. Overall, it was a relaxing stay at the cabin and we would definitely recommend!

Absolutely loved our stay at the cabin on the lakefront! The location was breathtaking with stunning views of the serene lake right from the cabin's doorstep. The host was extremely welcoming and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The cabin itself was clean, cozy, and well-equipped with all the necessary amenities. Waking up to the peaceful sounds of nature and enjoying the beautiful sunsets made our stay truly unforgettable. We highly recommend this house to anyone looking for a relaxing and rejuvenating getaway. Five stars all the way!
